HC Deb 06 December 1990 vol 182 c204W
Mr. Rowe

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when the Government plan to make available further humanitarian assistance to Angola.

Mrs. Chalker

I very much welcome the agreement of all parties in Angola to the United Nations special relief programme. I have this week approved a further £500,000 of relief assistance for the victims of drought and civil war in Angola. This is in addition to our earlier agreement to help meet the cost of a team of United Nations relief co-ordinators and brings the total of our relief assistance to Angola to £1.5 million since September last year.
